Santana – Borboletta (LP, Album, Terre Haute Pressing, 1974, Columbia PC 33135)

Why This Record Matters
Borboletta captures Santana expanding beyond the band’s Latin-rock foundation into jazz fusion, Afro-Cuban jazz, and atmospheric jazz-funk. Produced by Carlos Santana, Michael Shrieve, and Tom Coster, the album features “Life Is Anew,” “Give And Take,” “Mirage,” and the extended “Promise Of A Fisherman.”
